Baltimore @ Arizona
Team Totals: Ravens 26, Cardinals 18
Ravens HC John Harbaugh handed first-year OC Todd Monken last Sunday’s game ball after Monken’s offense hit its peak in Baltimore’s 38-6 drubbing of Detroit. Their offensive roster finally healthy after dealing with myriad early-season O-Line and pass-catcher injuries, the Ravens look poised for ongoing liftoff from here on out. Sudden MVP candidate Lamar Jackson has completed at least 70% of his passes in six of seven starts, while Week 8 opponent Arizona has coughed up the league’s fourth-most fantasy QB points, including the NFL’s third-most yards per pass attempt (7.5) and fourth-highest completion rate (71%). The Cards also rank dead last in football in pressure rate, suggesting Jackson will experience a squeaky-clean pocket. … Gus Edwards is RB2/flex viable as the lead back on a Ravens team favored by two scores against an Arizona defense that’s surrendered a crisp 4.5 yards per carry and nine all-purpose TDs to enemy running backs in seven games. Edwards does face some risk of losing meaningful work to Justice Hill and/or Keaton Mitchell should the Ravens fall behind, although that outcome seems unlikely.
Lamar’s 2023 target distribution: Zay Flowers 54; Mark Andrews 40; Odell Beckham 22; Nelson Agholor 21; Rashod Bateman 17; Hill 11; Devin Duvernay 7; Edwards 5; Isaiah Likely 4. … The Cardinals have coughed up the NFL’s fourth-most receptions (104) for a league-high 1,357 yards to enemy wideouts.
